"New Hampshire's Treasury Department manages approximately $20 million dollars in unclaimed cash and stock and we are committed to returning the property to its rightful owners as soon as possible." - Georgie Thomas, New Hampshire State Treasurer.
" Millions of property owners have lost track of savings accounts, stocks, pay checks and other financial instruments over time, as they or relatives have relocated. "
"As more and more states face budget crises, unclaimed assets have become an important source of revenue. Even smaller states, such as New Hampshire ($2 billion) and Massachusetts ($1.6 billion) are holding significant amounts of unclaimed property in their coffers. "
